Hello Ivan. For our application, the web service would only be to push
policy to the data store. FR would have normal access to the data
schema. Now that Im understanding a bit better, I will look in to our
web app setting policy to openLDAP  for FR to reference with a NAS
requests authorization.

Only the NAS need to speak FR, the rest of the system can talk
directly to the data store, correct?
